Is there any actual independent data though, or verification of any of these claims? As it stands this is just a marketing programme for all involved.

- H8crilA 6mo agoFfmpeg confirmed on Twitter that they sent the patches.
- cubix 6mo agoAlthough, they also said, "Because the patches appear to be written by humans".
- WithinReason 6mo ago"Mythos writes code like a human" incoming
- H8crilA 6mo agoThe patches could have been written by humans, it doesn't matter that much. Or written by a clanker and polished by engineers. The difficult part is usually not in writing the patches that fix such vulnerabilities, but in finding the vulnerabilities. And these days it's even harder to exploit them, since you need to bypass modern hardening features.
- kachnuv_ocasek 6mo agoWhat would be the product they're marketing by this campaign?
- ozozozd 6mo agoThe product they launched?
- mholm 6mo agoThis product is explicitly not being released for usage
- 0123456789ABCDE 6mo agojust because _we_ don't have access does not mean anthropic's not getting paid
- prawn 6mo agoThe product is being provided to some of the most influential companies. That can definitely serve to Anthropic's advantage. (Regardless, I suspect the hype is real.)
- timv 6mo agoImagine you were making purchasing decisions about which LLM-based coding tool to use. If one of the possible vendors convinces you that that they have a next gen model that is so powerful it found 20+ year old bugs in a hardened operating system, that would undoubtedly have an influence on your decision even if you are only buying the current model.
- 4ndrewl 6mo agoYou don't market products, you market lifestyles/interests. Sell the sizzle, not the steak etc. For Anthropic it's "we own the big scary models, the AI security space, but it's ok we're responsible" For the partners it's "we're the Big Boys here and will look after your enterprise needs" None of it needs any more than anecdata and some nice, pre-approved, quotes. Every organisation does it.

- KoolKat23 6mo agoThat's pretty disingenuous, bordering on ridiculous. Do they have a record of lying to you? No. Go read the system card. It's a lot more tame than you think, peoples are taking pieces out of this and hyping it. Doesn't mean it's not valid.
